This isn't just a statistic. It's lost wages, lost savings, and lost opportunity for millions of women across the country.
We won't stop pushing until every woman receives the pay she deserves. Equal work. Equal pay. No exceptions.

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." Dr. King understood that our struggles are interconnected. This #MLKDay, as we face unprecedented attacks across the nation, the fight remains inseparable from the broader movement for Black liberation and dignity.
Black mothers face a significantly higher risk of dying from childbirth-related complications, a multifaceted problem driven by systemic racism, implicit bias, and inequities in healthcare access and quality.
This #GivingTuesday, we’re celebrating a decade of showing up for Black women and families. Your support over the last 10 years has powered our fight for reproductive justice.
Join us today and help us keep building a future where all families thrive. secure.actblue.com/donate/ma…
Blocking phone testimony = blocking working parents & caregivers from participating in democracy. #ReproductiveJustice includes the right to parent AND have a voice in policy decisions that impact our families. If it's the people's house, take OUR calls! #NVLeg
NEW: @ACLUNV and a host of other organizations sent a letter protesting the prohibition of telephonic testimony for #nvleg Assembly hearings during the special session.
"If this is truly the peoples’ house, we would encourage you to reverse course and take the peoples’ phone calls," the letter reads.

"We have folks who have family members who have long-term illnesses that cause them to have to go into the hospital on a regular basis...So, they've had to leave their jobs, or they've had to just not work at all," -Erika Washington

It’s important Nevada children and educators feel safe when in school. Honored to be working on this alongside our community partners to address the fear families and children are experiencing.
